The Place of Wonder
I open my eyes to find myself standing in the beautiful expanse of answered prayer. This is the place of freedom, where dreams come true. You illuminate the dark places with the radiant splendor of your face. You lavish your undying love upon me until I can barely speak.
Yes, this is the place of reverent wonder. Where Iâm struck silentâamazed at your faithfulness; humbled by my lack of patience while I waited for you. Forgive me for thinking you deserted me.
Tears of love soak my face as I ponder how wonderful you are. Youâve come through once again. All you require is a sincere heart that loves youâa radiant lover who honors you and worships you, even in the hardest of times. To this one, you pour out blessings that astound us. You surprise us with treasure that youâve been storing up all along.
Lord, I pray for those who are as weary as I wasâstrengthen them with courage, overshadow them with your glorious presence as they wait for you.
From "Prayers on Fire" written by Brian Simmons and Gretchen Rodriguez
Psalm 31:23
The Passion Translation
Listen to me all you godly ones: Love the Lord with passion! The Lord protects and preserves all those who are loyal to him. But he pays back in full all those who reject him in their pride.

Right on CS! Yes it all starts with an honest relationship that eventually grows into an intimate history (expanse of answered prayer). As with any relationship history there is pain and sorrows, but they are always overshadowed by the joy of time spent with the one you love. Thanks Sis for sharing these beautiful messages.

I really like what Brian and Gretchen wrote here. What Iâve found is that God doesnât just appear with awe and wonder to make life full of joy. Rather if we communicate with Him and focus on Him, then we find that joy a little bit at a time. After a while we then experience the âexpanse of answered prayerâ. Itâs a subtle difference, but as we become more intimate with God, His True Glory is apparent. đ
